This is the situation when we use Screen resolution less than the maximum screen resolotion supported by the Visual Display Unit (PC Screen - VDU). In case of maximum screen resolotuin the frame buffer memory is fully utilized and only one page is available for display. For such a resolution when it is less than the maximum resolution, more than one page is available, which we often use for animation using page flipping. We keep drawing on to one page which is hidden and flash it altogether when the drawing is complete with the existing one on the screen. This avoids showing of the partially drawn images. For any particular case even 3-4 pages may be available. So the system is termed as "Rotating frame buffer" in Computer Graphics. We keep rotating the pages (full frame buffer parts) to generate animation. A different situation where the frame buffer is literally rotated to generate a rotated display of any image is also sometimes referred to as Rotating frame buffer. Just changing the signs and interchanging the X-Y coordinates may generate such an effect.

What is graphics media accelerator?
graphics media accelerator or in other words graphics card or video card. a hardware for computer to boost up the speed of the display graphics of the computer. it also ends up the sharing of memory of the computer RAM for the display graphics. it also enables the computer to have graphics memory depending on the memory of the graphics accelerator allowint the computer to have games requiring high graphical memory.
What is cell encoding in computer graphics?

Is buffer is the part of the primary memory?
yes. its think time for your computer.
Secondary memory define?
Memory is something that is remembered. The Power of retaining something and recalling past experience like " he had a good memory when he was younger" In computer science Memory is the device which store the data in it for processing or for display. Memory is made of lots of buffer(buffer is 1 bit circuit).
What does GMCH stand for in computer languagr?
Graphics and Memory Controller Hub
Why is video memory important on a computer?
Because allows you to view the graphics from a computer. If there is insufficient video memory, the system 'borrows' available space from the RAM, which in turn robs you of processing speed and slows the computer down. If you require graphics intensive programs to run, such as 3D games, you need a graphics card with it's own memory chips.
Can your graphics card access extra memory from your computer?
Yes, this is called shared memory. But it isn't useful, its mostly a gimmick because the memory speed is much slower than a graphics card with dedicated memory.

What is the driver memory footprint?
Intel® DVMT 2.0 Graphics MemoryFootprint The driver determines the amount of pre-allocated memory needed and will make additional nonlocalvideo memory requests to achieve the total amount needed for the display and application graphics memory operational footprint. Factors in Footprint Variance The 865G chipset UMA memory footprint varies, and is determined using several factors. The key factors are system resources and system activity. Unlike the Intel® 81x chipset family, the 865G chipset memory footprint is not static. Memory footprint will vary in size as system requirements and demands vary. For example, when running a DVD in a window on the desktop, memory is needed for the DVD and the background desktop. However, when running a DVD full screen, the desktop frame buffer may be discarded or paged back to disk. This is the most efficient use of memory. DVD playback is just one of many activities that could effect memory allocation. The following section will describe some of the factors that aid in the request for page locked memory. Note: The operating system does not always grant the graphics driver's memory request. Base Allocations Part of the graphics memory allocation is dependent upon system activity. These are base allocations that the driver requests at the time it loads. For the 865G chipset, the driver allocates 204 KB for the command ring buffer and cursor/context buffer memory on all operating systems. Once loaded, the operating system and graphics driver allocates the buffers that the driver needs for performing graphics operations. The total graphics footprint allocates memory for commands, the frame buffer (resolution), the Z-buffer, GDI data, and off-screen memory. Maximum Allocations When graphics memory is being allocated from system memory, the total DVMT graphics footprint in system memory is capped to an upper-limit, ensuring the best usability and performance of the operating system, applications and graphics. The 865G chipset platform supports a minimum of 128 MB of system memory. For systems with 128 MB of system memory, the 865G chipset graphics driver will limit the graphics memory footprint to 32 MB. For systems with greater than or equal to 192 MB of system memory, the 865G chipset graphics driver will limit the graphics memory footprint to 64 MB. For PC14.X display drivers only, the 865G chipset graphics driver shall limit the graphics memory footprint to 96 MB.
What is it in a computer that makes it easier to play installed games...Memory?
Graphics card, and RAM ( Random Access Memory )
How the videomemory of your computer can be increased?
IF YOUR COMPUTER IS HAVING A MOTHERBOARD WITH ONBOARD GRAPHICS THEN YOU CAN SIMPLY INCREASE THE AMOUNT OF V MEMORY USUALLY 128,256,512.IF YOU HAVE A GRAPHICS CARD THEN onboard graphics shouldn't be turned on as it may cause conflicts.If you want more memory on a video card you will have to upgrade to a new card with more memory..sorry there's no other option for this.
What is the latest ram?
The latest computer RAM for system memory is Double Data Rate 3 (DDR3). For graphics memory, the latest is Graphics Double Data Rate 5 (GDDR5).
